Avrupa Birliği’nde Kamu Borç Stokunun Ekonomik Büyümeye Etkisi: Panel Veri Analizi

Bu çalışmada, AB-13’de 1970-2011 döneminde kamu borç stokunun artmasının büyüme yönde etkilediği panel veri yöntemiyle incelenmektedir. Literatürde “kamu borç stokunun GSYİH’ye oranının %90 eşik değerinin üzerinde iken büyüme oranının düştüğüne” işaret edilmektedir. Bu bulgu, gelişmiş ve gelişmekte olan ülkelerde mali istikrarsızlık konusuna dikkat çekilmesine yol açmıştır. Çalışmada, büyümeyi etkileyen kamu borç stoku değişkeni dışında diğer kontrol değişkenlerinin etkileri kontrol edildikten sonra AB-13’de kamu borcunun büyümeye etkisinin %90 eşik değerinin üzerinde negatif olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
